Description

Calendar event image

Join us for this special event featuring renowned Gullah Geechee Storyteller, Ms. Theresa Hilliard. The Gullah Geechee people are descendants of West African slaves brought to the coasts of Carolinas, Georgia, and Northern Florida, whose geographic isolation helped them retain a distinct culture and language. Gullah storyteller, Theresa Hilliard, has been featured in National Geographic video magazine in 2014 & 2016. 

This program is sponsored by the City of Cambridge Employees' Committee on Diversity, the City Manager's Office and the Office of Mayor Marc C. McGovern.
